Topic: PcKiller's New Lynx config Posted: 21 Dec 2023 at 10:01pm |
The $7,000 gaming rig in my sig is now 10 years old, and I still use it for gaming. It runs everything I ask of it, and does it great. The hardware has never had a problem with.
I am going to be buying my new Digital Storm Gaming PC in under a month from now. Waiting for the Xmas rush to be over with. Planning on reviewing that new PC here as well. I don't think you could any better than DS for your PC, as they make great systems. My new gaming PC is going to be this, Chassis Model: Digital Storm Lynx Exterior Finish: - Standard Factory Finish Trim Accents: - Standard Factory Finish Processor: Intel Core i5-14600KF (5.3 GHz Turbo) (20-Thread) (14-Core) 3.5 GHz (14th Gen) Motherboard: ASUS Prime Z790-P D5 (Wi-Fi) (Intel Z790 Chipset) (Up to 3x PCI-E Devices) (No SLI) (DDR5) System Memory: 32GB DDR5 6000MHz Kingston FURY Beast RGB Power Supply: 850W Digital Storm Performance Series (Modular) (80 Plus Gold) Optical Drive: External USB - DVD/CD 8x Multi-Drive (Writes and Reads DVDs, CDs Storage Set 1: 1x SSD M.2 (2TB Samsung 990 PRO) (NVM Express) Internet Access: High Speed Network Port (Supports High-Speed Cable / DSL / Network Connections) Graphics Card(s): 1x GeForce RTX 4080 16GB (VR Ready) Sound Card: Integrated Motherboard Audio Extreme Cooling: H20: Stage 3: Digital Storm Vortex Liquid CPU Cooler (Triple Fan) (Fully Sealed + No Maintenance) Cable Management: Premium Cable Management (Strategically Routed & Organized for Airflow) Chassis Fans: Digital Storm Performance Series (RGB Fans) Internal Lighting: Remote Controlled Advanced LED Lighting System (Multiple RGB Color Modes) CPU Boost: Turbo Boost Technology Windows OS: Microsoft Windows 11 Home (64-Bit) Recovery Tools: USB Drive - Windows Installation (Format and Clean Install) <br><strong></strong> Virus Protection: Windows Defender Antivirus (Built-in to Windows) Priority Build: - No Thanks, Ship Within 10-15 Business Days After Order Is Successfully Processed Warranty: Life-time Expert Care with 3 Year Limited Warranty (3 Year Labor & 1 Year Part Replacement) I did remove everything I left blank.

Looks great!
Hey, I moved your message over here so it wouldn't get buried in that necro thread. Easier for The Smart Guys® to come take a look. |

Does the Lynx case have fan mounts on the inside of the top of the case?

I don't know about the fan mounts, but I highly recommend you ditch the liquid cooler for the Noctua NH-D15. It will give similar performance especially on that proc. When the all-in-one fails, it's a complete replacement. If the Noctua fails, you replace the fan that went bad. Aside from that, it's a solid build.

1 I found out that the case does have mounts on the top inside of the case.
2 I feel better with the liquid cooler. I may OC it a bit. Edited by PcKiller - 25 Dec 2023 at 5:33am |
